They like the ability to see in greater detail and contrast. The doctors are experiencing the "it feels like you are there" effect; though I am sure those doctors are familiar with HDTVs. It seems that they like the digital format the best though. Digital film is so much easier to work with and requires a lot less "stuff." Plus, if you want to consult a doctor in, let's say...Switzerland, both doctors can be looking at the same images live.

Next time I need some surgery, I will take a road trip to West Virginia 'cause we all know everything is better in high definition.
